What we say:
At A Glance:
The Fender Vintera III Early '70s Jazz Bass Rosewood Fingerboard Candy Apple Red brings together the best of vintage and modern Fender! If you've been searching for a classic style Fender with real vintage specs this might just be it. Early 70's specs all around from the neck to the pickups and even the colour. As if a 70's Jazz Bass jumped right off the production line to the modern day. While this may be spec'd exactly like an Early 70's Jazz Bass though, the quality is exactly what you expect from a modern Fender. A classic alder body, a maple neck with laminated rosewood fingerboard, and fantastic playability to go along with the classic tones. If vintage is your style, this is your guitar!
Features We Love:
Early 70's Spec Pickups
The pickups of the 70's deliver a tone that many Jazz bass fans chase for years. Fender have carefully crafted these pickups to capture the magic tone that many look for. The 70's Jazz bass pickups are known for being brighter and punchier making them a particular favourite for slap players. The 70's style pickups provide a more aggressive sound compared to 60's style pickups from earlier years, while still sounding warm and clear.
Early 70's Neck Shape
During the early years of the Jazz Bass there were many unique features as it found it's footing and settled in to the icon we know it as today. The Early 70's neck shape has a noticeable chunk to it compared to earlier 60's models, which creates a comfortable thickness without feeling too big. For players who aren't so fond of slim necks this is definitely one to check out! Combined with the 7.25" radius and vintage tall frets, this Early 70's style neck combines the best of what we know and love about the Jazz Bass with vintage specs.
Vintage Spec, Modern Quality
When it comes to buying guitars the quality has never been better which means buying a vintage style guitar has never felt better! The Early 70's Fenders are the dream for many players and Fender have distilled many of the aspects which make these guitars so revered down in to this series. Combined with their fantastic and renowned quality from their Mexico factory what you end up with is a guitar that has the look, feel, and sound of an iconic 70's dream guitar with all the quality modern Fender are known for.
